The actor and actress explained that they were both in committed relationships throughout the times they worked together on a project and they always thought of one another as friends, thus the idea of sleeping with each other never occurred to them.
“To not date each other? I don’t think we needed to state it,” Julia said when asked if she and George ever had a “no dating policy.”
“It just seemed the right thing to do,” she continued.
Meanwhile, George Clooney gave a more precise response, explaining that they were “always in a relationship” with someone else and that their friendship was “nothing but fun.”
“Julia was always in a relationship or I was in a relationship, and we were fast friends right away,” George stated.
“And so, it was nothing. It’s been nothing but fun for us. So, I don’t think that was ever really a thing,” he added.

“Yeah, it was never like, ‘Hi,’” Julia then playfully said to George to which he responded, “Hey, ooh, let’s take this to a different level.”
The 61-year-old actor and the 54-year-old actress eventually laughed at their comments while displaying their friendly bond.
